Summary

From the 2026 World Cup, more football is expected (although of more dubious quality) and less money in your pocket. With the increase in the number of teams that will participate in the event, from 32 to 48, the World Cup sticker album should grow in the same proportion. Therefore, completing the self-adhesive writings will be more savory. Simulation carried out at GLOBO's request by statistician Sebastião de Amorim, professor at Unicamp and partner at data consultancy TecnoMétrica, estimates that the average expense to close the album will increase from RS 474 today to RS 728 in eight years, an increase of 53%. The expense is equivalent to the current value of almost three official Brazilian team shirts or more than four original World Cup balls.
